Skies are clear with temperature inversions firmly in place. Ridgetop temperatures are well into the upper 20s to low 30s while basins and trailheads are in the teens. Winds are light from the northeast.
High pressure will dominate the weather pattern over the weekend while a lost and wayward storm wobbles about well to the south. Take heart, though, as in all things, there is hope on the horizon: a series of storms are set to impact the region on Monday.
If you play your cards right, you'll find windows of supportable semi-corn today on east, then south, then westerly aspects today. Polar aspects are wind damaged up high with a temperature crust from Sunday's greenhousing down low. The mid-elevations may offer the most consistent soft settled snow. It'll be a beautiful sunny day today with light winds from the northwest. Mountain temperatures will soar into the upper 30s up high, the mid to upper 40s down low.
No reports of avalanche activity from the backcountry yesterday. Catch up on recent observations below.
